We see this term bandied about on SM, giving the impression that it has to be elaborate or expensive or time-consuming. Fuck that noise! For me, self-care means just that: doing something to take care of yourself. Yes, I'm a bougie brat who gets nails and pedicure and leg sugaring. But those things aren't my self-care. Being able to sit quietly with an activity I enjoy feeds my soul and calms my mind. Crafting, playing my instrument (relearning really), reading a book, taking care of my garden... these are some things that I do to take care of myself. I make sure to take my meds, drink my water, and eat something daily. But that's really just maintenance, right? Bare minimum? Please, take a small amount of time as often as you can to do something that feeds your soul or soothes your mind! You can't pour from an empty cup! đ
